ACCESS-S Research
Project

UPDATE Jan 2025: MDC shutdown date has moved to June 2025. This allows us a lot more time to switch over processing to the EDC, so expected impacts on the ACCESS-S2 Post-Processing pipeline should be minimal.

General Information
ACCESS-S is the Bureau's operational global seasonal forecast system. The latest version ACCESS-S2 went live in operations on 20 October 2021, replacing ACCESS-S1.
The Coupled Modelling, Seasonal Climate Processes and Seasonal & Marine Applications teams in Research lead ACCESS-S development, post-processing, verification and product development, including maintenance of these webpages.
Project Forecast Pages
These pages are PASSWORD PROTECTED. The products are EXPERIMENTAL ONLY and are available to project partners and collaborators for trial purposes only.
